Rosily

Rosily Wine Details
Price: $6.99 per bottle

Description: Semi-sweet pink wine with good balance. Made from select hybrid grapes with Concord and Steuben added to give it a fruity character and its rosy color.

Varietal Definition
Concord:
This native American grape varietal (of the genus vitis labrusca) is used in making old- fashioned, "rustic" country-style red wines, often displaying what most people think of as a "grape jelly aroma." In fact, the Concord is widely used in the production of jellies and jams. This East Coast varietal produces wines that have been variously described as foxy, meaning they have a unique aroma/flavor profile variously described as wild and musky. Mogen David is perhaps the quintessential Concord wine.
Steuben:
American native hybrid grape used to make mild, grapey, red wine. Found mostly in the Eastern and Mid-West regions of the U.S.
